About The Artwork
This bowl is inspired from David Hockney's swimming pool paintings. I tried to create the glistening swimming pool water and the movement of the swimmers. I'm also thinking of the up-coming olympics and am looking forward to watching the swimmers! I love swimming myself. The bowl is hand thrown and decorated and is standing on four small legs that are decorated in platinum. First the bowl gets a biscuit firing with the colours then a transparent glaze where the temperature in the kiln goes over 1200 degrees. The third firing is around 750 degrees for the platinum which would otherwise burn away at the high temperature. The bowl is 33 cm diameter and can be used as a fruit bowl.

Netherlands
I was born in England but have been living in Holland for 35 years. I've been working for myself as a ceramic artist for 25 years. My passion is throwing so my sculptures are also all made out of thrown pieces. I also enjoy making unusual teapots. Last year i won two prizes in China with my teapots. I get my inspiration from everywhere, from something i might have seen on the news to people waiting for a bus. I like to "use" my art for expressing an opinion, either political, environmental or whatever other random thought i might have. I also like to put some humor into the work even though it can be a serious subject. I'm hoping to make people think but with a smile on their face.
